cover of the sultry, stormy 'cry me a river' as sung by julie london.

i was stood in my room singing my favourite classics when i chose to record this, and it flowed out of me quite effortlessly, which is not always how it is; I felt like i could have been channelling the aggrieved and heartfelt rage of a lady from the 60s whose heart had been misused, hearing my voice spill out of me like that - as it had rarely sounded before, in the emotion at least. hmm, but how wonderful...

"now you say you're lonely
you cried the whole night through
well go on and cry me a river
cry me a river...
I cried a river over you"

go on, cry me a river

I am a singer, not a musician. I sing and I record myself singing with my phone, so most of these tracks on here are of poor quality. But if you have come here for substance, for emotion and raw articulation with a human voice, then I invite you to stay. I have never shared some of these recordings before now. But they comfort me, so I want to offer that comfort to others. I will not share my name or identity for the purpose of keeping my singing isolated here. That's all I want to share. If it is a 'gift' I have, then let it be a gift to the few. I'm okay with that. Thank you for being here, even if you just stumbled on it. I hope you are doing okay.
